I tend to agree with the peer who said "there are traitors in out midst."
The Book of Mormon tells a story about a once prosperous civilization that existed in the Western Hemisphere many centuries ago.
The civilization collapsed gradually due to the influence of a group called the "Gadianton Robbers." They did not use organized military force, but rather civilian infiltration of the existing government, as a means to take it over. In so doing, the government became so corrupt that the entire civilization collapsed.
As a result of this story, and others, Mormon evangelism is about more than saving individual souls and families. It is about saving our entire country, our liberty, and our Constitution from this kind of moral decay and collapse.
Nick Shirley is doing the work of God! I just hope and pray that he stays safe. I worry a lot about his personal safety. The Gadianton Robbers used murder and political assassination to advance and defend their power.
PS: The Book of Mormon was originally written in reformed Egyptian. The term "mon" is reformed Egyptian for "good" or "goodness". Contrary to popular belief, the term "Mormon" is not about producing more "men" but rather more "good" or more "goodness." Some refer to it as a breeding cult designed to populate the earth, and they say that "Mormon" = "More Men." But, that is a fallacy.
Wonderful article, Mason, and thank you for the reminder of what truly matters.
However, voting, in the context in which the parties currently exist, is fairly simple when one considers what that party’s representative is likely to bring about.
Don’t vote for Trump because he isn’t Christ-like enough? Look at the other side…
You should not have been so surprised at this man's conversion. No male, even at HLS, really wants to be a man without a chest.
Now you and your friend can complete the journey and come home to Rome. Like so many others.
On the subject of flawed leaders, readers may be interested in my 2017 WSJ op-ed "Echoes of King David in President Donald".

Can we hear more about the "strange events and sound reasoning" that led this acquaintance to convert?

A very well written piece Mason; definitely made me reflect on a few points you made. Thank you
We often don't realize our impact on others as we move through life until someone approaches us years later and thanks us.
How beautiful.
